Last Chance to Ring in the New Year Fighting Back!

Posted on December 31, 2016

Dear friends,

The biggest threat and challenge to the coming Trump Agenda is the growing popular opposition that will be felt and heard in the streets throughout America. There may be no place more significant than in Washington, D.C. — the nation's capital. This is the epicenter of demonstrations that have changed the course of our country.

Donald Trump's extremist positions do not represent the views of the majority of people of this country. He doesn't speak for you and he doesn't speak for us. Only 26% of the electorate voted for Trump, but unless we act now his extremist right-wing agenda will be imposed on our country and on future generations.

The PCJF's decades of work ensuring that our streets, sidewalks and parklands remain open and safe for dissent have resulted in landmark agreements and groundbreaking changes to the laws of policing of demonstrations and access to public space. Judges have called this work "historic" and referred to it as "a benefit for future generations." We did not take a moment's pause after the election and were immediately fighting for the right of protest at the Trump Inauguration and every day thereafter in the coming weeks and months.

With the support of you and other people of conscience we can win this fight. Please make a donation today to ensure that the voice of the people is able to be so loud, so clear and so pervasive that it changes the political climate in Washington D.C. and around the country.
